Trade idea - never mind

Never mind, someone else already posted the exact same idea!!! Great minds think alike!!!


We know there is interest in Ogunleye. With Ricky Williams retired the Skins should package Betts in a trade for Ogunleye. Obviously not straight up. But the Dolphins could get rid of their holdout situation and improve their backfield in one fell swoop! It's worth entertaining anyway, don't ya think?

If you seen it posted, why would you start this one and not post in the other????

We are not getting Oguleye! Miami needs a replacement for Williams, Betts is not it.

Nobody available is! This will have to be a package deal.

No attitude, just curious. You can also delete the post, before anyone replys.

And yes I'm from NY (LOL)

The Bears and Vikings



exactly, 2 teams who have talented RB's (Da Bears have the A-Train who ESPN seems to think that the Fins will possibility attempt to trade for, and the Vikes have a ton of RB's in their backfield at this present time: Michael Bennett, Moe Williams, Onterrio Smith) I wouldn't think with both of these teams possibility being interested in Ogunleye and the Fins need for a RB that we could step in and WOW them with a deal involving Betts. (could be wrong, just don't see any interest from them in Betts)
